DVD Shopping Bag: One Disc, Two Disc, Blue Disc?

I just watched Gotham Night and for the most part it was pretty decent. The first 15 minutes were horrible though. As long as you can make it through that, the movie is worth a look.

After watching the DVD, though, I'm actually looking forward to the Wonder Woman animated movie. It looks promising. I just hope they can make the story interesting enough for a 75 minute film. I've never been the biggest fan of the character other than when she was in the recent JL and JLA shows.

So you owe $1200 on your car? That's about what it takes to get a blu ray player and a good 32" LCD HDTV. Payoff your car then, you are almost there.

I haven't noticed a big difference on 2D animation when it's on Blu Ray or DVD, so I wouldn't go for the Blu Ray version. If it's 3d then sure.

Wonder Woman does look promising, I didn't know Alfred Molina would be in that, cool. Long way till spring 2009 though.

I love Batman, as you may have noticed :), but I'm not buying this. I saw it and it wasn't that great, although I'm not big on anime so I'm sure that influenced. Some of the stories were weak, I agree with redairs, the beginning was lame. I would've preferred a movie instead of a compilation of stories by different artist. The Killer Croc/Scarecrow and DeadShot ones were the coolest.

I thought this movie would bridge the gap between Begins and Dark Knight but I didn't get that feeling after watching it. They touched on somethings I'm sure we'll see in the movie, like the Wayne satellite and the Major Crime Unit cops Allen & Ramirez, but that's about it.

PS. Batman The Animated Series is selling for $17 on Amazon.

Screw the blu ray player, buy a PS3 and kill two birds with one stone, since the PS3 is probably the same price as a regular player anyway. I've had mine since September though and have yet to buy a blu ray disc. It's not so bad with Gotham Knight, but in Canada blu ray discs are 30 bucks apiece. I'm a sucker for fancy packaging and collectible swag, and Batman Begins is the first blu ray set to really have any of that. Guess what my first blu ray movie is going to be.

hanso, i'm totally pissed at you now you talk all this shit about your ps3 and i can't even find a job cause i have a felony charge..

damn it i want a ps3. how is GTA 4.

but soon i will have a job then i won't be mad anymore.. plus The Dark Knight will soon be out and i can't watch that numerous times to pass the time

I'm agreeing with Redhair on this one. I'm not a huge fan of anime to begin with, except for a few things, but that first segement was horrendous. The rest of it is pretty good, especially the part that looks like it was done by Mike Mignola. The stories were pretty good, fans of the original series should be able to tell which one is Alan Burnett's. The thing I love about this DVD is that finally, finally, FINALLY we've got KEVIN CONROY doing an audio commentary! I'm buying the dvd (I rented it first, see above comments regarding anime) just on the basis of that.

Hanso, Thanks for the tip on the Amazon.com special. Just bought all 4 seasons, the animated movie box set, and Mystery of Catwoman animated movie...all for less than $90!!

PRED I feel your pain! If you’re pissed at hanso do yourself a favor and don’t talk to scytheofluna. That sumbitch has two Xbox360 & a PS3 PLUS his wife gets on the other Xbox and plays with him. Some people got the life!

Want me the PS3 real bad myself. My brother's got one though and GTA4 is great, from what I've played, which isn't really any of the missions. Just driving around shooting people and paying for sex. Man that takes me back.

SOCOM is gonna be where it's at though. Must have PS3 by September!!!

Nice score redhairs. Watch out with season one. They’re on the disc in production order and not actual continuity.

Gonna try and get me Gotham Knights tonight!!

I bought GOTHAM KNIGHT and was pretty solid for the most part. The first segment, "Have I Gotta Story to Tell You" was basically a redone edition of the episode "Legends of the Dark Knight" from BATMAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES (WHICH IS ONE THE 4 EPISODES PICKED BY BRUCE TIMM ON DISC-2) where kids had their different perspectives about who or what BATMAN is. But I wasn't too keen on the animation in that sequence, but the other sequences drawn were good and I don't have problems with anime when its straight-forward and attention to detail is generally astounding. But I don't like anime when it comes to GIGANTIC EYEBALLS BULGING OUT LIKE UFO's, UNSURREALISTIC FACIAL EXPRESSIONS, CHARACTERS SUDDENLY DEVELOPING RAZOR SHARP TEETH WHEN YELLING AND FUCKED UP TRANSFORMERS DRAWN LIKE TEEN TITANS IN ROBOT SUITS...when people say they don't like anime, its probably because when they see Pokemon, Dragonball-Z, etc...the style tends to get blackballed because much of it is drawn way too kiddie-like, and that's what is commonly seen on tv on a daily basis. But then when its taken seriously like AKIRA, GHOST IN THE SHELL or APPLESEED, then its not too big of an issue. Plus anime is not all done by japanese as other countries including the States adopted the style (ANIME WANNABES) over the years and went away from the art-deco approach...though Disney still does their own style. Another reason animation on tv comes of as less-inspired in this age is because animators think that it shaves off time when developing episodes. Notice back in the 80's when episodes would look good one day and pretty shitty the next because of the time they needed to get them done and often times would run out of order because they weren't getting them done fast enough, plus trying to do an order of 39 to 60 shows in a season was no easy feat back then. So today's standards is more about puncutatlity and less attention to detail which at times leads to half-assed drawing. While I don't draw as much today as I used to in my youth, I still do things in detail, a style I haven't changed.

Why you mad at me Pred, I talk shit about my PS3 cause it's giving me some damn problems lately. Freezing up on me, might cost me $150 to get Sony to repair it. I only speak the truth about my particular console :)

Felony charge? Man u lucky you ain't in jail with all the hunting you always doing. Must have the po po yelling 187 everytime you stop by.

Good luck on your job search and only 9 days till Dark Knight, that always helps!
